What I find most funny is your nauseating self righteous attitude. Dear oh dear. That raised a titter.

Ok, let's have less crowbar-ing. Oliver Cromwell - traitor or not? Has revolution to overthrow a king who encroached on parliamentary rights - becomes more autocratic than the king he killed and closes down parliament. It is a familiar outcome for revolutions. French revolution, Napoleon becomes emperor and more autocratic than the king they killed. Russian Revolution, kill the Tsar and Stalin actually says to his mother "I'm like the Tsar" when she asked him what he did - of course he was of magnitudes more oppressive and autocratic than any Tsar. Mao-Tse-Tung - made the Chinese Emperors look like Town Mayors in terms of his power and oppressive rule.
We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell] |

It's some situation we are in today. The republicans in the US are the defenders of free speech....along with what genuine liberals are left hanging on within the democratic party. The religious right within the republicans use to be who we had to worry about but now on PC questions of what you can say it's the right and the liberals who will tolerant speech. Shapiro is very sharp and a very old school republican.....So I disagree with him on many planks of policy. But on freedom of speech and expression I cheer everything he says. Ann Coulter, is a shock jock republican and I only really agree with her on immigration and freedom of speech.....but she's very presentable...so it's always enjoyable to look at those short skirts even if I don't agree.

Dear oh dear. That raised a titter. I quote Hitler to demonstrate that your attitude is not dissimilar. 'Fascism,' as you casually describe it, is as alive and well in the far left as it is in the far right.

Gusset thinks fascists should not be given a platform as they promote hatred, discrimination and racism. One can only assume that you think fascists and racists should be free to spread their bile.

It's not your hatred of fascists that is the problem. It is your stretching of reality to fit your wider agenda.

Hrolf, how would you persuade someone who is a bit reticent about Brexit, because basically it's a s***storm of w***ery performed by cockwomble incompetents which has lead us to being the laughing stock of the world, that things will turn out well?

Stop putting words in my mouth. I'd hardly call the shock jock style of borderline racism conservative. You've been across the pond too long. I think people reading your reply can see for themselves that you think Shaprio and Coulter are fascists. Just like Breitbart readers and Trump supporters you mention in your post. And it's totally absurd. And it's your justification to shut down speech you don't agree with – using violent means. Edited by Penge Eagle (18 Oct 2017 10.14pm)
